A gem of a summer read with a glamorous location, elite lifestyle, and Hilderbrand's appealing take on the constant stress that fills the lives of women everywhere * Booklist on A SUMMER AFFAIR * This book was a great read - you really care what happens to the characters. Perfect holiday reading. I didn't want to put it down * Candis on BAREFOOT * An honest, raw tale of friendship and love * Cosmopolitan on THE CASTAWAYS * So deliciously addictive that it will be the 'It' beach book of the summer * Kirkus Review on THE ISLAND * It provides a pacey read, with colourful characters that have fascinating motivations. I couldn't get them out of my head for days * Sunday Express on SILVER GIRL * Takes the chick-lit trope of reclaimed friendship and updates it with a timely twist . . .
